I have a access db with linked tables from an oracle9i db. When I create a query it never works whenever I select a date field, instead I get an 'ODBC call failed' message. When I remove the date field the query works fine. Anyone know how to write the query so I can get dates to.
Thanks for the help

I've got an access database (access 97) running on windows 98, windows xp and one windows 2000 machine.
How come on the windows xp and windows 2000 machines where i have the formula =date(), i get the error #name. on the windows 98 machines it works perfectly.
Please help :)
Windows XP
Office 2003 SP1 with Access 97 SR2
When opening a certain Access database a user is recieving this error:
Function isn't available in expressions in query expression '(((PRODUCTION.DATECREATE)=Date())'.
This only happens on a specific computer. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Office, Access, I've even tried just installing Office 97. I also went through and reinstalled all the ActiveX controls that have to do with the date (MSCAL.ocx gives us trouble sometimes).
I'm not that familiar with the programming for the database, it was done quite some time before I got here, but I know enough to understand what is happening. I think the problem lies with the Date() function (this still happens as admin on her machine so it isn't a permissions error) but I have no idea how to fix it.
I remember reading something not long ago about a similar issue that had to do with differing versions of library files for VBA. I was going to try and replace the library file containing that function on her machine with one from mine, until I found that it apparently isn't stored in a file.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm at my wits' end with this thing.

I don't get it!!!! I use it all the time. <=Date() should get all rows with no future dates...but I get this error on some of my queries...I've never got this error before... :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
Sorry about the poor image quality.
when i want to update this form i get the the next error:
2147217913
Syntax error in date in query expression ##
Wat does that means?

I got this to work easily on another form but on this particular form it doesnt work. I enter a command button and name it d1, then I enter this code for it to populate the current date in the field next to the box:
Private Sub d1_Click()
Date_Entered.Value = Date
End Sub
Can anyone see why it doesnt work :eek:
ERROR IS:
Run-time error '2465':
Database cant find the field 'Date' referred to in your expression.
When I enter a date field it enders whats in that field (blank) into the field I told it (Date_Entered) on my form.
I have code in a BeforeUpdate subroutine of a text box to validate the date. The user can choose to keep or discard the value but the warning only appears if the date is in the future or at least a month old. This is my code:
Private Sub txtDate_BeforeUpdate(Cancel As Integer)
Dim dtCurrent As Date
Dim objResult As VbMsgBoxResult
If (Trim(txtDate) = "" Or IsNull(txtDate)) Then
Exit Sub
End If
objResult = vbYes
dtCurrent = CDate(txtDate)
If (dtCurrent > DateTime.Date) Then
objResult = MsgBox("This date is in the future. Are you sure you wish to leave this value?", vbYesNo, "Warning")
ElseIf (DateDiff("m", dtCurrent, DateTime.Date) > 1) Then
objResult = MsgBox("This date is at least one month old. Are you sure you wish to leave this value?", vbYesNo, "Warning")
End If
If (objResult = vbNo) Then
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
It works fine when I answer "Yes" but if I hit "No" I get this message: The value in the field or record violates the validation rule for the record or field.
This control doesn't have a validation rule. In fact, there are no validation rules in any of the controls on this form nor on any of the attributes in the control source (table). The date is a required attribute of the table though. I can't hide this extra error message by turning off warnings because it happens after I exit the subroutine, so I wouldn't be able to turn the warnings back on. I also can't trap this error because it occurs after the subroutine ends.
If possible I would want the text box to be cleared and be focused if the user selects "No" to discard the date.
I'm using this date format in my report footer.
=Format(Date(),"Long Date") & " " & Format(Time(),"Medium Time").
It gives the current date and time on my computer, but causes an error on the other computers in the office.
Any ideas why?
Hello all - One of my 3 users' computers keeps coming up with an error when I try to enter the following command in the "Validation Rule" field of the table design view:
>=#1/1/1998# And <=Date()
Some investigative work showed that it's erroring on this clause: "<=Date()". Any idea why it would error on her pc and not the other 2 pc's? Her pc is old, but we're all using Access 2002. The error says: "The function you entered can't be used in this expression." Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks much.

I had created a Access DB where there is a query named as "GenerateTimeHours", here whenever am trying to do a search by ID, Time & Date, always getting "data type mismatch error", I checked it and understand this Error is causing for Date Search Clause, I tried every possible way to change the date format, using #, etc etc but no result :Query As follows:
Code:
SELECT GenrateTimeHours.ID, GenrateTimeHours.MaximumSeatsNumber, GenrateTimeHours.DaysInMonth, GenrateTimeHours.Hour, GenrateTimeHours.Remaining, GenrateTimeHours.FinalSeats
FROM GenrateTimeHours
WHERE GenrateTimeHours.ID = 1 and GenrateTimeHours.Hour between #08:00:00 AM# and #10:00:00 AM# AND (GenrateTimeHours.DaysInMonth) between #7/2/2013# AND #7/3/2013#;
I have a cross-tab query that is filtered on user-defined date range using a where condition of:>[Forms]![Reports_Menu]![txtFilterDateFrom] AND <[Forms]![Reports_Menu]![txtFilterDateTo]
the Query functions perfectly. The report based on that query, however, only functions with a DateFrom that is before 1/28/14 and a DateTo that is after 2/27/14. If I enter a date in either field that is outside of those ranges, I get the following error:The Microsoft Access database engine does not recognize " as a valid field name or expression.I have defined both of my Query Parameters as Date/Time in the Xtab query design.
I have a table that imports data - including date of birth. the format is dd.mm.yyyy - the db keeps throwing up the error - Birthdate must be 8 digits. The only validation I have for the field is "<date()" to ensure that a future date is not entered.
Help!
hi
I'm writing a pretty simple application to search an Access db. The query is:
Me.cmdSelectEvents.CommandText = "SELECT eventDetails.id, eventDetails.subject, " & _
"eventDetails.title, eventDetails.trainers, eventDetails.type, eventDetails.summary, " & _
"eventDetails.url, eventDates.date " & _
"FROM eventDates INNER JOIN eventDetails ON eventDates.id = eventDetails.id " & _
"WHERE (((eventDetails.subject)=@subject) AND ((eventDetails.type)=@type) AND ((eventDates.date)<@date));"
The parameters @subject and @type are simply strings selected from dropdown values.
The @date parameter is set by using a dropdown to select a timeframe to search in, specifically "Within 1 month", "Within 3 months", "Within 6 months". These options have the values "1", "3" and "6".
When the form is submitted the value of the selected option is passed into the following routine:
Dim valSelectedDate AsInteger
Dim dateParameter AsDate
valSelectedDate = ddlDate.SelectedValue
dateParameter = DateAdd("m", valSelectedDate, (Date.Now))
cmdSelectEvents.Parameters("@date").Value = dateParameter
When I run the debugger the right date value seems to be being passed to the sql query (i.e. if the user selects "within 6 months" and today's date is 5th May 2005, then #05/11/2005# is passed as the parameter) but I get the error data type mismatch. The column eventDates.date is a Date/Time column.
Can anyone help?
I have a report that shows weekly schedules (each week start with Sunday date for the row) for multiple teams (columns). It prints 1 year at a time.I have to add the Sunday dates by hand into the table for each year. I have added 2016 but when I generate the report I get a "no current record" error.By the way, I am not a "programmer" but I can usually figure out whats going on when we have a problem by looking at other code in the system and by finding answers for similar problems on the forum!!
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhat's the best way to trap the error I get when I don't input the time correctly in a date/time control?? I have a the following as an input mask: 99:00 >LL;0;_...02:30 PM
View 3 Replies View RelatedI Have a field called appointment date and i have set the input mask as short date 00:00;0;_
the data type for the field is date/time but for some annoying reason this error message appear when I enter a date to the table... which for example is written like this 01/03/2003
I've attached the msg below ....
I have a vba code export a error message if the current date of a file is not correct.. I have tested the code it worked to send a error message to a error.txt file but he it doesn't look to the modified date
So instead of:
file1.txt (13-02-14)
Then
Send error message ("file not updated") to: Error.txt
IF NOT
no action requeried
This code does the following :
file1.txt (Modified date: 13-02-14)
Then
Send error message ("file not updated") to: Error.txt
file2.txt (Modified date: 14-02-14)
Then
Send error message ("file not updated") to: Error.txt
Code:
Sub CheckD()
Dim FSO As Object: Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Dim objFile As Object: Set objFile = FSO.GetFile("C:Users
ameDocumentsShow5621.txt")
If objFile.DateLastModified <> Date - 1 Then
[Code] .....
So also if it is the current date he send the error message to the error.txt file, it could be possible that i did something wrong.
I have simple crosstab query that I use to pull data about how many products is selled in one day/week/month and so on. On entry form I have two critical date fields, Starting/Ending date. It all works perfect except when I put indetical values in both those fields.
For example I have sold over 100 items on 4th of february 2015. year. So, in Starting/Ending date field of entry form, I put value from 04/02/2015 to 04/02/2015 in order to see how much items was selled that day.
This is the error I receive:

So I have a macro in excel which imports data from the excel sheet to a table in access db. Now the excel file has 4 columns which have dates.
- I imported the excel file from access via access so that I can get the heading of the table and the table is created. Then I deleted all the data in the table.
- When the table was imported 2 of the date columns got set as Short/text data type. Dont know why.
- Now, if I leave the data type as it is in Access table, my macro button in EXCEL works fine and imports the data to Access. If I change the data type, in access design, of the two data columns to date type, I get the type mismatch error when I run the import macro button in EXCEL. I am going nuts over this error. I even created a blank table in access and defined data types to all columns which would be imported from excel. but still excel macro button shows the same error.
I checked the format of all the four date columns is date.
I did a lot of hit and try and could it be the case that if access table fields are defined properly, but any of the data columns cells in excel sheet is null/empty, it will show the type mismatch error.
is it possible and is there a way, that once the data is imported to access, I can convert the value in the column from short text to date type.
Hi,
I have a query with a field defined in the query as follows:
Next Bill Date:
IIf(IsNull([dtmLastBillDate]),
DateSerial(Year([dtmDateRecd]),Month([dtmDateRecd])+1,15),
DateSerial(Year([dtmLastBillDate]),Month([dtmLastBillDate])+[lngNumMonths],15))
I can't seem to set any criteria for this field without getting an error:
'Data Type Mismatch in Criteria Expression'
Examples of criteria that I've tried:
=#1/1/2005#
>#1/1/2005#
=Date()
Year([Next Bill Date]) = Year(Now())
All of the above generate that same error.
{I've seen many pages/posts regarding 'data type mismatch' but none seem to relate directly to this situation.}
I could use some help, fast!
Thanks in advance,
David

Was trying to append an Excel 97-2003 spreadsheet to an existing Access 2010 database.
The last field in the spreadsheet is Date Update.
When I click 'Finish' I get the error "Field Date Update doesn't exist in destination table <name of table>.
This database was created in Access 2003, and was not updated since and I don't have Access 2003 on my destop.
I saved the Excel Spread as a Excel Workbook *.xlsx and tried to append it. Same Error was the result.
I'm new to programming with Access but am attempting to create a new field in a table with an new date based on existing fields in the table.
The current fields are [Frequency], integer, [Risk], text, [Last Audit Date], date/time, and the new field is [Next Audit Date]. [Frequency] is a calculated field based only on [Risk] and is equal to "5" if [Risk] is "Low" and is "3" is [Risk] is "Medium" or "High", and [Frequency] is blank if [Risk] is (thus far it has never been empty).
What I need the new calculated field to do is return "N/A" (or blank, or anything easily separated really) if [Frequency] is blank, or if [Risk] is "Low" or "Medium". If [Risk] is "High", [Next Audit Date] should be equal to [Last Audit Date] plus 3 years. When I try to save the code, I get this message: "The expression could not be saved because its result type, such as binary or NULL, is not supported by the server."
This is my code now:
IIf(IsNull([Frequency]),"",IIf([Risk]="Low","N/A",IIf([Risk]="Medium","N/A",IIf([Last Audit Date]="N/A","N/A",[Last Audit Date]+Year(3)))))
I am trying to get the records on start and end date, still showing error no records found.
My code is like this:
Private Sub Command90_Click()
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim strReport As String
Const strcJetDate = "#dd/MM/yyyy#"
[code]...
I have a table that has entries recorded with date and time in one field, and I want to have a query that returns all records of a specified date or date range, regardless of the time in the field.
I have tried
Code:
Between [StartDate:] And [EndDate:]
And
Code:
Between [StartDate:] & "00:00" And [EndDate:] & "23:59"
Neither of which work ....
